	Guardian Unlimited Football \| News \| Wilkinson shock for Stadium of Light
		Howard Wilkinson yesterday ended his six-year exile from domestic football to become manager of Sunderland, an appointment which filled the Football Association's former technical director with far more enthusiasm than it did the club's supporters.
		Sunderland's chairman Bob Murray handed Wilkinson, sacked by Leeds in 1996, a deal at the Stadium of Light until 2005 after the Yorkshireman took "less than 10 seconds" to decide to become Peter Reid's successor and their ninth manager in 18 years.
		Wilkinson, 58, has hired Steve Cotterill, 38, as his assistant, an unorthodox pairing which dates back to the older man guiding the younger through FA and Uefa coaching courses over the past 15 months.
